In a 6-computer network connected by a router, I have one HP LaserJet 4 Plus
printer connected to one computer. It works fine as a local printer on the
computer it's attached to. It also works fine on 4 other computers in this
network. I had no trouble Adding it as a network printer on those 4
computers, and it works fine on all of them. However, as it now stands, one
computer will not let me add it because it keeps insisting that "The printer
name is invalid." That's very strange because it's identical to the printer
name that appeared in the Add Printer Wizard, Browse for Printer dialogue on
the other 4 computers.

I shall very greatly appreciate your help on this frustrating problem.
 
XP Home is limited to 5 connections. XP Pro to 10. If you are running XP
Home, you are running into the limitations of connectons and the only remedy
would be to upgrade to Pro.
